Lighting Systems for Night Flying
DescriptionAeroLEDs™ landing and navigational lighting products are designed for some of the most extreme operating conditions on the planet. They introduced the world's first LED-based Nav/Strobe lighting product that meets TSOs C30C and C96a-C2. The PULSAR line is a "clean sheet" design, utilizing advanced mechanical/electrical computer modeling and optical ray-tracing software to accurately predict the performance of the final product. The design has these benefits compared to traditional lighting systems: zero maintenance, reduced power consumption by 80%, no harmful substances such as xenon or mercury, extended light performance, lighter weight, reduced aerodynamic drag. All units are sealed and nitrogen purged. These are a direct retrofit when replacing legacy products, with no mounting modifications. No power pack or high voltage wiring required - the strobe connects directly to a switched 9-36v supply. Strobes can be connected to synchronize them.
Two systems are available:
1. Pulsar NS90 c/w Suntail. Wingtip position/strobe lights combined with a tail light/strobe for rudder mounting. This fits the post 2000 RV-7/8/9/10 wingtips with recess, and is the standard installation for these models.
2. Pulsar ExP. Wingtip position/strobe lights combined with an aft facing white light, similar to Whelen A600. These work on older W-415 type wingtips (no recess) on the RV-4/6/8, on airframes without the rudder light.
